Donte is a fantastic coach. Our daughter thrived under his coaching - both on her AAU team and in private lessons. He is encouraging and fun while also being very focused on player development. Anyone who has a chance to learn under his guidance will truly benefit.

He is very relatable to the youth he trains. Love his positive reinforcement!

Donte is a consummate professional with a passion for kids!! He’s always on time and is very detail-oriented!!

Myself, my husband and parents all noticed improvement in our son’s basketball game as a result of working with Donte. Donte brought out a confidence in my son that nobody else could. Max really looked forward to his weekly training sessions with Donte.

Dante is a great leader and has a true passion in helping players reach their full potential. During my time with Dante, I noticed he has great knowledge of the game and a great basketball IQ. He caters to the players’ skills and needs, through various training regiments, as a great trainer should. He truly embodies the role of a basketball trainer. I would recommend sending your child to work with him!!

My son enjoyed working with Coach Donte’ for the past 2 yrs and learned so many strategic techniques on the court. He was very engaged, responsive, flexible, and polite throughout the time he trained my son. It’s sad to see him go but we know an opportunity of a lifetime is well deserved.

Donte is a great coach and he has works really well with my daughter!! My daughter has been working with Donte for the last few years and he was the one who has really brought out her true potential. He’s really knowledgeable, has excellent teaching qualities, and knows exactly how to work with children.

Coach Donte is an excellent coach. I have improved my overall game with his help. He has helped me to take my game to the next level.

We’ve been with Donte for the last 5yrs. He’s family to us - challenged our sons skill set every lesson. OYJ works on every aspect of your game - shooting, defense, ball handling and movement. Our sessions were two days a week when available but at least 1 day per week. Our Son was the only 7th grade player to make the 8th grade MS Team and will probably make the varsity team as a 9th grader because of OYJ.

My 13 year old has been working with Coach Dante since the age of 7. He is a master of his craft. He has helped my son make his Jr High Basketball team and become competitive in the AAU circuit. He is the best trainer around and extremely patient.

Dante is an excellent trainer. He makes sessions exciting while teaching the game. Dante is passionate and tailors training to fit the athletes needs. He has trained my son for over 3 years. In that time, he has become a better ball handler, finisher, and shot creator. Dante is an excellent choice if your athlete is serious about taking their game to the next level in an encouraging positive environment.

Donte was a dedicated and amazing coach/teacher for my son John. Gave him the confidence and skills needed to become a much better ball player.

Coach Donte began working with our son when he was a freshman in high school. He continued until he went off to play college ball. Coach Donte not only helped improve his game but gave him the confidence to improve his skills. Our son enjoyed his workout sessions with Coach Donte, he believes he is a better player because of the work he put in during his sessions. As a parent we will forever be grateful for the work and confidence Donte instilled in Michael.

Training was phenomenal Donte focus on skills/fundamentals along with various “in-game”movements. We saw our daughters overall game and confidence explode in a relatively short time. But more importantly, Donte was supportive, trustworthy and great role model not only to our daughter, but to everyone he came in contact with whether training, coaching or just in everyday interactions. Highly recommend Donte and Own Your Journey!

My daughter loves the basketball training with Coach Dante!! She looks forward to practice and her basketball skills have improved tremendously.

Donte taught my son in a way that acknowledged his skill set. In other words, he understood where my son was and gradually helped him reach a higher level of achievement.

Great mentor for my daughter Amanda. Always giving 110% of feedback back. Amazing coaching when it comes to coach basketball. In addition, a great father. Great with kids and full of knowledge.

Coach Donte was excellent in every facet - he started working with my son a year ago and the development he has made in that time is impressive. He does a great job teaching basketball fundamentals while helping kids develop their game. I would highly recommend anyone searching for a great coach/teacher to seek out Coach Donte.

Donte is very personable & energetic and can break down basketball for your child no matter what their ability. He also truly cares about making your child a better player. My son trained with Donte for years and he was able to step up the training as my son developed.

Incredible journey with Donte, improved my game to the next level. Been practicing with Donte for a year, and saw tremendous improvement in my game. Highly recommended.

Donte is great at what he does, very patient, knowledgeable, and the best at what he does. Thank you!
